WHEN: Noon to 2 p.m. Thursday, March 3, 2022 | via ZOOM | MCLE: 2.0 Ethics | COST: $50 (We’re excited to have this national presenter provide this CLE for us, therefore discounts not available.)
Hollywood might not be able to teach much when it comes to actual ethics, but it can teach legal ethics! This class covers the model rules in a way that is sticky. By using Hollywood storylines and real-life examples, the attorney will be able to remember these rules when it matters most – while practicing!
